Question

I'm trying to work on problem set 1, part 1 but I'm kind of stuck.
Here's a piece of the code I'm trying to run and the results hopefully someone can advise.
I'm using python 3.3.5 so some stuff won't be as in the class.
I just need help to get the while loop working.

Answer 1

It is working. Look at it this way:

month = 0
Borrowed=float(input('How much have you borrowed: '))
How much have you borrowed: 500
Paid=float(input('How much you pay every month:'))
How much you pay every month:100
while month < 5:
month += 1
balance = Borrowed - Paid (balance = 500 - 400)
print ('Month:',month)
Month: 1
print ('balance:',balance)
balance: 400.0
month += 1
balance = Borrowed - Paid (balance = 500 - 400)
print ('Month:',month)
Month: 2
print ('balance:',balance)
balance: 400.0

And so on.

Every time it loops, you set it to 400 then print it.

If you need Borrowed later, then before the loop set `balance = Borrowed`. Then in the loop do `balance = balance - Paid`
